Galion (Oh.) 2014 athlete Dareian Watkins got word earlier this week that good news should be coming his way this weekend when he spoke with the West Virginia coaches. And Saturday morning, he received an offer from the Mountaineers.

Watkins has been interested in West Virginia since early in the process and was excited after being informed by offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh that the Mountaineers were offering him a scholarship. During the summer the assistant coach had asked Watkins to be patience and it paid off.
